Beschreibung

Description: Currently, when interacting with a Windows reverse shell, pressing Tab does not autocomplete file paths or commands on the remote machine. It would be a significant productivity improvement if penelope could handle tab completion in these scenarios, similar to how it behaves in Linux PTY sessions or other Windows tools.

Reference: This functionality is currently available in evil-winrm-py. There, the user can press Tab within the remote session, and the tool queries the remote host to complete the path or command.

Additional Context: I understand that evil-winrm-py operates over the WinRM protocol, which might make autocompletion easier to implement than in penelope's raw TCP shell handling.
